    Bike or not, Calvin really shouldn’t go anywhere without wearing a helmet.

    “ironic coincidence” Interesting phrase as the two are usually mutually exclusive.

    When the killer bike doesn’t even need to chase Calvin to hurt him, you know something’s wrong

    Remember when I was trying to learn how to ride a bike. I was told how to stop—- “Push the pedals backward”. But I could never figure out exactly what that meant. So I went flying across the local busy road, me screaming and the car horns honking everywhere. My parents weren’t impressed. I had to wait for another year until we’d moved to a more rural location to learn how to ride the bike.

    My granddaughter is almost five years old. Last Sunday, my son decided it was time she learned to ride a bike without training wheels. It worked out fine for a few minutes.

    Ironic juxtaposition? In a comic?

    How to teach a kid to ride: Start them on a trike or something so they learn how to pedal. When time for a bike, forget the training wheels. Throw those away. Set the seat low enough they can easily reach the ground with both feet. Take off the pedals and chain so they are not in the way of feet. Let them play with it this way for a while. They will discover it “glides” on their own within minutes. To turn, they’ll stop, turn the bike, then go again. When you notice they don’t stop to turn, they know how to ride. Put the pedals and chain back on and they’re going. No fuss, no fear, no frustration, little chance of injury.

    Surprising that the whole youth fad of untied shoes ever caught on!

    actually it’s easier once you’re moving, since you then have gyroscopic effect helping out.

    Riding the bike is easier, I have been known to fall off my sneakers while standing still. I don’t run, I will trip over my own feet and face-plant in less than 10 steps.

    I’ll bet that “Ironic Coincidence” is an emo band and “Evil Omen” is a death metal band.

    Calvin: “I’m going to learn to ride that bike if it kills me!”

    Fate: “If you say so…”
